Abstract

The present invention is concerned with a fragment of IgA1-protease having 40 to 200 amino acid residues and comprising at least 40 amino acids of an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO 1, beginning with the amino acid in any one of positions 1 to 5 and ending with an amino acid in any one of positions 40 to 104 or a homologuous sequence, its use as a carrier for a conjugate, particularly in combination with a polysaccharide, and a process for producing the peptide as well as vaccines comprising said peptide.

Claims (25)

1. A peptide having 40 to 200 amino acid residues and comprising at least 40 amino acids of an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO 1, beginning with the amino acid residue in any one of positions 1 to 5 and ending with an amino acid residue in any one of positions 40 to 104 or a homologuous sequence.
2. A peptide according to claim 1, comprising an amino acid sequence that is identical or homologous to an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of the amino acid sequences:
of SEQ ID NO 2, beginning with the amino acid residue in any one of positions 1 to 5 and ending with the amino acid residue in any one of positions 40 to 104;
of SEQ ID NO 3, beginning with the amino acid residue in any one of positions 1 to 5 and ending with the amino acid residue in any one of positions 40 to 104;
